Zucchini Oat Energy Bars

These bars have extra veggie power, are full of fiber to keep you satisfied, have a touch of sweetness and will fuel stable energy to address a mid-afternoon slump or pre-workout fuel. Kid-friendly too!

One of my tips…instead of adding dark chocolate chips to the batter, sprinkle a bit across the top of your dough and press in before baking. Gives you the taste without going overboard.

Preheat the oven to 350. Line a 9 by 13" pan with parchment paper. Place all ingredients in a large bowl and mix until well combined. Pour into prepared pan and press down firmly with back of the spoon or your hands. Bake until golden brown for 20-25 minutes. Cool completely on wire rack. Cut into individual bars and wrap for on-the-go convenience.
